My being

 I exist as a human on a planet spinning around a star. When one sees their being from this perspective they may have a tendency to recognize how little each of us is. I am tiny compared to trees and miniscule next to the planet. But besides physical being there is mental awareness and the life of the mind which is both connected to the physical and free of all form. Our being which resides before atoms is both completely caring for the experience gained from this reality and simply observing what happens. When we live as physical beings we are best off if we find balance between the joy of experience and the peace of an outside observer. As one who is here to experience, we can each find the most joy by taking in the world around us as moments of physical interaction given through a body. As an outside observer we can acknowledge our eternal ability to have the experiences multiple times over and not feel a need to force them into the world right now. Mingling the two perspectives...

Limited

 Could you imagine living in a society that allows half it's people to be paid an ever lowering percentage of the amount of money it takes to live comfortably? What if the people accept such a society as just the way it is even as a certain group continues to amass such large amounts of wealth that it becomes impossible for them to spend it? What kind of leaders would allow a gap in income to occur that a tiny portion of people holds more wealth than the larger portion of people in their society? A review in December 2024 found that in the United States of America there is an issue with distribution of wealth and we all accept it. The wealthiest people make up one percent of society and hold over thirty percent of the wealth. It is good to know that there is a group that makes up just under fifty percent of society and they hold sixty seven percent of the wealth. That is not too bad, a nice percentage of us is doing pretty well, but that leaves about fifty percent of the people try...

Men

 I have been inspired by many men in my life, from family members to those I never knew but who made me push my mind. I try to find a lesson through every person I meet, and there has been so much inspiration given to me by wonderful and wise women in my life, but right now I will stick with the men who have brought something memorable to my life. My father has taught me so much; from patience as he watched me work through my own mistakes, trying to give me guidance which I always accepted so slowly over time, rarely when it would have been the most useful. As I have watched him keep his body strong and able to play throughout his life, I learned that staying in good shape allows me to play at things that have brought me joy and energy since I was young; two wheeled toys are so much fun. I have also learned independence, which sometimes makes things harder, but keeps me working to always push myself to take on challenges. My uncles, which are varied and have been gifts stretched...

Would you

 I wonder how much faith you would put into the sincerity of a person who says they are self made and came from nothing, then it came to light that their career began at their father's real estate company? Which they were given and were able to expand because of their father's financial and political backing that enabled them to do their first deals, demolishing and renovating landmark buildings. Would you trust a person who in order to avoid the financial ruin of their businesses used methods which were legally dubious to avoid paying taxes, and whose own lawyers described their activities as improper. When we consider the people who have come from poverty or lived near the edge of poverty throughout parts of their younger lives and have been able to build a world around themselves that supports a comfortable living experience for their families, then we can compare and see what self made really looks like. For one to be raised in a household that has millions of dollars avail...

It moves

 Sometimes we find ourselves in the flow of the forces of nature in the middle of existence, and despite our own desires or fears we are asked to alter our state of being to continue with that flow. I have found my own choices moving through time have become so altered and twisted that from one year to the next I was nearly unrecognizable to my mind. While I changed, despite becoming more responsible, supporting more than my own life and mingling with the minds of others I have kept my heart playful and full of joy. As I toy around in the structured view of reality that so many people hold onto, I move with their fears or desires to be a guide in this place. I have had to bend to help them see a little more of the light and power that resides in them. I have given into time, I have handed my body over to space and my mind is often now a tool for others, but I remain within these layers because I am open to move with the flow as it is. I may push here and want to pull back there, bu...

Not yours

 This world is part of a creative energy and each of us should have an equal share in the gifts that it makes available to us just for being here. When we allow greed to rule over our experience we lose a large portion of our wonderful freedom; the freedom to go out and experience everything around us at will. If we give ourselves over to childish desire and any form of selfish executive control we will find ourselves being used to serve that which is against our own joy. The idea of a shared level of comfort spread across the entire human race should not be outside of our daily thinking. Each of us is as worthy of a well balanced life with fine food, shelter and some play as any other person. We can move into a state of being where the rich can remain at their level of comfort while others rise in their net worth to the point of not having to worry daily about how they will survive. We can all grow. Love, PEACE

Incorporate

 The motion of space and time within the mind's earthly state of play assures us that we are trapped in their combined grip. With the power and influence they hold it can be difficult to stretch into the self as energy consciously overlooking as it all plays out. But that level of being is available for your brain to use and move into. When you have that in you, your presence can enjoy the whole experience as every now opens to you. Find your own power source and keep reminding yourself of what you are. Love, PEACE
